Many ethnic groups have an Easter greeting that goes like this: a: He is risen, alleluia. b: He is risen indeed, alleluia, alleluia. Since I married a Polish Rhode Island woman and inherited a Polish Rhode Island mother-in-law, I'm used to hearing it in Polish. Are there similar traditional ethnic greetings for Palm Sunday? -Joe- I"m sorry to hear of the bombing of Coptic churches in Egypt this morning. I visited a few Coptic churches when I was in Egypt. The people were so nice, and they were so proud of their religion and their traditions.
